ABSTRACT:
An athletic glove comprises a glove body having a substantially planar configuration and which is adapted to be wrapped about the hand, wrist, and arm portions of an arm extremity. First and second rigid brace members are disposed within pockets formed within the glove body for engaging the interior, palm-side of the extremity portions, as well as the exterior, back side of the extremity portions. The two braces operatively cooperate to rigidify the extremity wrist whereby when the extremity undergoes a particular movement, the hand, wrist, and arm portions thereof move in unison. The second brace member may be bent at a central portion thereof in order to fix the disposition of the wrist at a predetermined inclination, and padded fabric may be secured to the interior surface of the glove body for wearing comfort purposes.
